MH370: The Plane That Disappeared (2023)

Review by Espherial

MH370: The Plane That Disappeared

6/10

Clouded Conspiracies: A Bizarre Exploration of MH370

Get ready for a wild ride, conspiracy fanatics and admirers of the absurd, because Netflix's "MH370: The Plane That Disappeared" is the documentary lovechild of David Lynch and The X-Files. Prepare for a cavalcade of peculiar characters, harebrained theories, and just enough actual expertise to keep you from going full-on "I want to believe."

Our odyssey kicks off with the TomNod lady, who quite literally has spent too much time gazing into the abyss. She's dead set on having found the missing plane, only to unveil she's been bamboozled by a cloud. So, Cloud Lady thinks this white splotch on her grainy picture is somehow the missing plane. I wouldn't trust her to find even a missing contact lens when she's missing the obvious.

But hold onto your tinfoil hats, folks! Up next, we have a writer who's the doppelgänger of Wilson from House, if Wilson had been replaced by an off-brand action figure. This guy drags us on a ludicrous journey to Kazakhstan, where he claims Russian agents gassed the passengers, dodged the effects, and have been hiding the plane ever since. He even ties Xenophilius Lovegood into his tangled web of conspiracy, accusing Luna's dad of being a Russian spy planting fake plane debris. Next thing you know, he'll be claiming Snape was a double agent-oh, wait...

Amidst the chaos, actual experts sporadically pop up like Whac-A-Mole, desperately trying to inject logic into the madness. It's like watching a group of scientists attempting to hold a serious debate at a conspiracy theorist's rave while the Men in Black serve up cocktails laced with truth serum.
